A nylon/polyester blend brush combines all the positive qualities of nylon (precise tipping, excellent paint pickup, and smooth finish) and polyester (added stiffness and control) and is, by far, the most popular professional paintbrush choice due to their versatility. Also, today’s paints contain more acrylic resins and fast-drying solids which stick to polyester making them difficult to clean and limit the life of the brush. Polyester brushes will maintain their shape and control when exposed to heat but have lower paint pickup and production meaning you will spend more time loading your brush than the wall. Nylon brushes are very durable but may soften in hot weather or after prolonged use in latex paint. Chinex FTP brushes will maintain their stiffness for control even when exposed to heat and humidity. Chinex® FTP® brushes are designed for today’s paints and offer excellent paint pickup and production with a smooth, professional finish and easy cleanup. Synthetic brushes are available in a variety of filaments including Chinex®, nylon, nylon/polyester blend, and polyester. Synthetic brushes are recommended for latex and acrylic paints and water-based wood finishes. A synthetic, firm brush is best for this application even when using oil-based coatings because it’s very durable and will resist wear on the rough surface. Rough surfaces will break the tips off of natural bristle and will ruin the brush. If you need to paint a rough surface, natural bristle brushes are not recommended. When painting a textured surface, a black China bristle will work best because it’s slightly stiffer and is excellent for high-productivity applications. If you’re painting a smooth surface, use a white China bristle for a smooth finish or, if you need to achieve an even finer finish, a China bristle blended with ox hair is recommended. Experienced, traditional painters will say there’s nothing like the finish that a China bristle paintbrush can provide for oil-based coatings. The highest quality bristles come from mainland China. Natural bristle is the best choice for oil-based paints, varnishes, shellac, alkyd enamels, stains, and polyurethanes. Hardware store shelves are lined with a multitude of options so how do you know which brush to pick? The most important factor in determining which paintbrush is best for your project depends on the type of coating you’re using.

Full support for transparency is available for image formats that support an alpha channel (currently PNGs and GIFs). Paintbrush can open and save to most major image formats, including BMP, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, and GIF. Twenty-five years later, every Mac still includes a basic text editor in TextEdit, but a simple paint program is a thing of the past. When Apple released the original Macintosh in 1984, they included two applications: MacWrite and MacPaint. It provides users with a means to make simple images quickly. Paintbrush is the original simple paint program for macOS.
